Re: Oxenfree

If nothing else, replaying Oxenfree helped me remember what an absolute miracle Night in the Woods was when it was released in 2017. The writing in NITW is so good, and it's such a joy to move through Possum Springs. I'm also due for a replay of Kentucky Route Zero, come to think of it.

While doing some research about the game’s reception, I learned that Netflix acquired the Oxenfree development team, Night School Studio, in 2021. Netflix produced Oxenfree II, and I read that there’s a live-action series adaptation of Oxenfree in production. This sounds nice, to be honest. Crossmedia adaptations don’t always succeed, but I get the impression that Oxenfree might actually work much better if it weren’t an interactive video game.
